HEAVY LOSSES ON THE REFINERY FIRE.


SOME OF THE INSURANCE COMPANIES INVOLVED
THE EXTENT OF THE DAMAGE UNCERTAIN.
Much interest is man tested among fire insurance
men the forthcoming announcement of losses in
connection with the burning of the reineries of the
Havemeyer Sugar Refining Company at Greenpoint.
The tire occurred last Saturday morning but the list
OF assurances has been closely guarded from publica-
ton by the avemeyer Company, the Board of Under
writers and the agents who placed the risks. II was
stated yesterday by prominent fire insurance man
that the list embraced nearly il not quite, one hun
dred and fifty companies. The policies aggregate
about 100000 Opinion is divided as to the amount
OF salvage.
One agent expressed the belief that when the ruins
are explored the damage will be found to the
entire sum of the risks and that the loss to the Have
meyers in the way of actual destruction OF pronerty
alone will tar exceed the amount OF the insurance to
say nothing of the loss resulting from inability to
supply their usually heavy demands Tor merchandise
in and xpOrt trade at this season OF the year
Another agent who has visited the ruins said that
while the losses the companies would probably he
complete. in his judgment the Sugar Refining Com
pany would find themselves whole, beyond the loss IN
trade resulting from the disaster. In some OF the
buildings almost everything is ohliterated except
what can be disposed OF as old metal. In the older
part of the works where the filter houses were,
between twenty and thirty filters believed to be in
state setul preservation. As has been stated the
syrup house not invaded by the fire. but this
simply storehouse and there was no possibility OF
damage to machinery.
But the principal interest hinges upon the showing
of the losses they affect individual companies
Ii was stated yesterday that the PhGnix OF Brooklyn
will snstsin a loss OF $4,000 the Liverpool and
London and Globe 100000. tn, Fire ASSOCIATION of
new York 500, 900, the Commonwealth $4,000 the
German American $4,000. and the Lancashire
$40. 600 The retcence OF the Board OF Underwriters
we'll OF the insured themselves prevents the pub
lication OF the complete list which, 1t Is stated nas
already been prepared by the agents and submitted TO
the printer
An insurance agent said yesterday: Most OF the COM
panes doing business in New York are connected
with the loss, although few of them have more than
S. 900 each. There is also considerable number OF
smaller companies not authorized TO do business IN
this State and several OF them barely able TO sus-
tain the heavy loses which they have made on this
single risk. BY way OF illustration let me say that
little Western Mutual Company, which has been
actively soliciting business in this State and which is
supposed to have not than $50 600 cash assets
has $4,000 policy in this fire"
The investig and adjustment OF losses is m.an-
while proceeding and there is feeling that some OF
the companies interested may find it necessary 10
suggest compromise measures before complete settle
ment Is reached
